THE BULLETS OF THE HARMLESS RABBIT: LUKMAN FIRES A COMPARATIVE SHOT AT UZAIRUE COMMUNITY, WITH STRAY BULLETS HITTING ADAMS OSHIOMHOLE AND PHILIP SHAIBU

EDO 2020: A TALE OF TWO CENTRIFUGAL GATHERINGS

As the 2020 race heats up, with the key gladiators in Edo North showing off their strengths by testing their microphones with gatherings of party faithfuls, the snooping rabbit, who had earlier drew the curtain on firing for the year 2019, had cause to struggle with an accidental discharge. It's a discharge that objectively compares the content and context of the two gatherings.

INTRODUCTION:
While Oshiomhole's gathering held in Iyamho village in Uzairue community, Shaibu's gathering held at Jattu village in the same Uzairue community. Both held simultaneously, the same day, and almost the same time. The implication is that you're either for APC's 4+4=8 project and attend Shaibu's meeting, or you're for EPM's Obaseki-must-go slogan and attend Oshiomhole's meeting.

OBSERVATION:
While the attendees of Oshiomhole's meeting were mostly "leaders" with no voting rights apart from the few statutory delegates comprising of former governor, deputy governor, house of representatives and the national chairman, those that graced Shaibu's gathering are all party executives who hold voting right in the upcoming gubernatorial party primaries (384 wards' principal executives from the 64 wards in Edo north, 64 elected councillors, 6 council chairmen, 6 council vice chairmen and some serving and former house of assembly members).

ANALYSIS:
It was obvious that the delegates voters in Oshiomhole's meeting hardly exceeds 20, though the hall was filled with expired PDP returnees and worshippers of godfatherism deity, which has been relocated from Uromi to Iyamho. It was also clear that those in Shaibu's meeting were clearly in excess of 520, and the original APC footsoldiers who worked with Oshiomhole to fight and defeat the deity of godfatherism in our beloved state.

CONCLUSION:
Judging from the attendance, both in quantity and in quality, it can be safely concluded with the limits of observatory errors, that:
1.Oshiomhole's meeting is a gathering of EPM which is a careless combination of sufficiently bitter and disgruntled APC renegades, runaway HoA members-elects and PDP returnees who are betrothed to the art of godfatherism deity worship.
2. That Shaibu's meeting is a careful selection of the original APC grassroot executives (wards and LGAs), all of whom are statutorily qualified to vote during the 2020 primary.
3. That considering the numbers of qualified delegates who attended each meeting, Obaseki-Shaibu ticket would win a transparent, free and fair primary were it conducted in Edo north that day of 26th, December 2019.
4. That if numbers are the yardstick to determine who to win the 2020 primary, even Oshiomhole is aware that Obaseki-Shaibu ticket would naturally pick the ticket effortlessly.
5. That if Oshiomhole is still being goaded into continuing this lost battle, the rabbit strongly suspects he is only backing on his ability to unlawfully deploy the powers vested in the office of the national chairman of our party to unilaterally anoint the APC candidate against the wish of Edo APC.
6. To accomplish item (5) above, he may be backing on his ability to deploy "federal might" and its resultant security agencies to lay a commando-like military siege on Edo state to enable him foist a preconceived electoral heist on members of Edo APC.

RECOMMENDATIONS:
It is hereby strongly recommended
1. Oshiomhole should quickly retrace his steps and explore peace with his boys in government house and then the original footsoldiers of APC. These newly acquired friends of his will do him no good, rather they would goad him into the worst political disgrace of his lifetime.
2. The security agencies should begin to process the daily occurrences and unfolding political developments in the state into concrete, actionable intelligence. This will enable them take preemptive actions to forestall any potential breakdown of law and order that could be precipitated by someone trying to use his position of national chairman to cause avoidable problem in the state.
3. As things stand now, the security agencies should advise and instruct all parties to maintain peace by maintaining the status quo of elected party executives' compositions. The gladiators can go about peacefully wooing party executives/delegates in preparation for a transparent, free, fair and publicly televised party primaries to be held in one secured location in the state capital. Any other unlawful prescription outside this orderly conduct of the gladiators and their followers is a recipe and direct invitation for breakdown of law and order.
7. Though the harmless bullets penetrate very deeply into the political apparatus of the country, including the high security apparatchiks, it is highly recommended that who ever comes across this bullet should refire it to appropriate quarters until the recommendations are given due attention.
